Ed Rapley: The Self Trilogy, Tristan Bates Theatre – Review
A compassionate and recognisable look at how to deal with the difficulties of everyday life.
-
Naïve Dance Masterclass, Canada Water Culture Space – Review
Wildly ironic, slightly off the wall and completely unpredictable, this piece forces laughter and awe.

00 and His 7, St James Studio – Review
Great if you want to get 45 minutes away from work and watch a production which is neither taxing nor confusing. However, if you are a ballet fan, it might leave you wanting more.

Hero, Leicester Square Theatre – Review
The makings of a good show are definitely here, but the execution is lacking.
-
Bukowski’s Cass, The Vaults – Review
Sexy, irreverent, but not quite truthful.

In-Finite Space #2, The Vaults – Review
Imagine Maria from The Sound of Music coming up with the lyrics to Favourite Things using Twitter. This is kind of like that, except it’s about Favourite Spaces and it’s dancing, instead of singing.
-
33, Battersea Arts Centre – Review
A unique and beautifully executed interpretation of a harrowing story. This show is a must see purely for its originality and acting tour de force.
-
Border Tales, The Place – Review
An extremely relevant study on the nature of identity using choreography as the main artistic framework of exploration. Particularly interesting in the light of today's political conflicts and the re-examination of UK immigration laws.
-
Moon Tiger, Rose Theatre Kingston – Review
An excellent adaptation that offers an evocative portrayal of one woman’s life remembrances. Some fascinating reflections on the history of the 20th century.

Why Fronts: A Contemporary Lap Dance (Part of Resolution! 2014), The Place – Review
This is one lap dance you will never forget.
